BYK Kids Bike E-450x8 Disc Dusty Blue

The best entry-geared bike on the market for kids.

E-450x8 | Age: 6 - 9 years | Height: 115 - 145 cm

Ability Level: Able to ride with some developed skills and has reasonable responsibility. Ready for handbrakes only.

We have combined our low gravity concept ergonomic frame with the very best cassette gears and tough wheels for the greatest safety and rideability.

It delivers a dramatic advantage in handling and comfort—with each tube of the frame customized to reduce weight and improve handling, and superior control and bump dampening ability with our CRM forks. Just 10 kg.

Design:

At the heart of every ByK Bike is a well designed frame and weighing just 1.2kg our lightweight frame is easier to ride adn manoeuvre. The ergonomic design ensures a great fit and superb handling, your child will have a light and easy bike to ride. Our custom sized and shaped V-bars is another unique design - by considering shoulder width, riding position, safety and comfort our handlebars are made for kids.

Performance:

With lightweight alloy wheels, we've made pedalling easier - our taller, more efficient wheel sizing has a dynamic advantage that other bikes can't match. And like the professionals, we've added radial spokes on the front wheel. Our smooth, faster-rolling tyres don't wear little legs out so quickly - the pattern is easy rolling and very robust.

Safety:

To make a children's bike safe, the rider needs to be able to brake efficiently and confidently. We have used alloy front and rear callipers with light action for superior control and a simple and safe coaster style foot brake. The best of both worlds we believe. The custom-sized V-Brakes we have used are calibrated for age, ability and ergonomic fit. And they are made of non-flexing, strong and light alloy. Our light weight alloy rims ensure pedalling is easier. But more importantly alloy rims are a more efficient braking surface than cheaper, chrome-plated steel rims, and are therefore safer.

Little Details Count:

• Increased knee to handlebar clearance for growing bodies.
• Longer wheelbase for stable handling at higher speeds.
• Alloy seat clamp.
• Custom length cranks.
• Ergonomic riding triangle between pedals, seat and handlebar for best balance and efficiency.
• Pedals with bearings.
• Taller, more efficient wheels and tyres to increase riding distances and lower riders' centre of gravity.
